We usually call here for coffee and scones and have always enjoyed it. This time we called for lunch and my husband ordered a panini and when it was served it was only one half of a panini with the filling on the top. Looking back we should have asked where the other half was. I had the loyalty card and was entitled to a free coffee and I had ordered a coffee and a bottle of water. The water was the cheaper option than the coffee yet it was the water that was taken off the bill and not the coffee. It just left us feeling so very disappointed indeed as the panini definitely wasn’t worth the money at all and I felt the coffee should have been taken off the bill. The outside toilet is never clean.

Ordered two sausage rolls and was told they came with side salad. Paid £6 each which I thought was dear enough. When they brought them to the table they’d run out of salad so we had a sausage roll each with a small amount of tomato relish. Apparently I hadn’t paid for salad in the cost! So £6 each for a sausage roll! No matter how tasty a sausage roll may be, it’s never worth that! I’m genuinely sorry to say the Creamery Can has just become a bit too expensive.

Have drove past this place a few times and always thought we should call in worst mistake should have kept driving food poor I ordered pulled pork biroche bun £8.90 the pork was in chunks and very hard, the sandwiches the rest of the family ordered were mediocre I mentioned to the owner about the pork and he laughed at me the customer service or lack of it was ridiculous! Keep driving!

Went this morning for the full breakfast, my wife had the pancakes, tbh extremely average to poor , sausages and bacon reheated in a queuing oven, the soda,and fadge barely toasted and for £10 poor values, my wife’s pancakes had a slight taste of bi carb soda, and rubbery and a tiny portion of syrup, First visit and I don’t think I would rush back , beautiful premises,and setting, just a pity their culinary skills, let them down

Went for lunch, had the pulled pork in brioche bap, served with coleslaw, dry lettuce (no dressing) and half a cherry tomato. Pulled Pork was dry and cold fatty pork fillet with some barbecue sauce drizzled over it. Worst I have ever had, tasteless. Prices extortionate for what you get. Very bad experience. Won't be visiting again.

We got served quick enough. It is a small location so you would have to get here early or wait. It has such a cute scenery inside and the views! However, it took an hour with only an apology before we even got our coffees + another 20 minutes before we got food. The food was excellent quality though I was starving for a breakfast and shouldn’t have had to wait that long. Did not appear to have any signs for a toilet in this small establishment though from what we could see. There is not much of a car park and the road to this place is a bit tight.

I frequently call in here on cycle runs, but recently it’s been a bit disrupted. I called today - usual excellent coffee, and range of tray bakes. However, there’s a new system that if you sit outside on the patio, the food comes in a disposable container, and the coffee in a cardboard cup. Not very eco-friendly at all compared with washing up, and disappointing from a venue that prides itself on ethical values.

Before Covid I was usually here about once a month, so I was delighted to see it had reopened again. Like most places the prices have gone up but as the food is normally excellent, I was happy to pay the increase. i ordered the Homemade wheaten bread, rocket leaves, avocado, eggs & balsamic drizzle and for the first time ever, I was very disappointed as the avocado was hard, the eggs had been fried - solid yolks, I wasn't asked how I would like them fried as previously they had been poached, I would have asked for sunny side up and the bread was very crumbly. I did say to the staff, who were very pleasant, but all they could say was that they were disappointed that I wasn't happy with my meal

A long wait for breakfast cooked in some sort of oven mostly. Pancakes and bacon not much better as pancakes not toasted either.

We arrived at the Can which is a usual stop on the way to the North Coast. The service was a bit chaotic we had to wait a long time to place our order. Our order was simple coffee and scones but this took along time to arrive nearly half an hour. When our order arrived the coffee and scones were good. Whilst the coffee shop was reasonably busy there were rumblings from the tables next to us. It is disappointing that one of our favourite coffee stops was let down by poor organisation in the kitchen.

My son and daughter had a panini each, which they said were good and filling. I had a scone and cappuccino. The scone was good - fresh and quite filling. There were lots of delicious looking cakes and tray bakes on offer, some of which were gluten and dairy free.

Never again, took my friend for lunch it was a disaster. Waited 15 mins to get my order taken then I was told they were not cooking eggs so I ask for a sausage bap. As I waited the couple next to me one was served the wheaten and eggs I ask again why they couldn't serve me the same and was told they were not cooking eggs.When my sausage bap came I lifted the top of bap and I thought it was a piece of bread cut in 4 fingers nò it was anemic looking sausages they didn't seem to be very happy when I returned the food. I ask again about the eggs that surely it would take longer to cook sausages and was told no the sausages were precooked and warmed in microwaveWe had waited 20 mins for all this. I was not the only person that was dissatisfied. I do feel if this cafe wants to make their business work they need to look again at the staffing levels.There was quite a few young girls serving and this is no reflection on them .The owners need to take heed

There are many beautiful home made cakes, tray bakes etc that I have yet to try simply because I can’t resist the scones or the full breakfast! The cafe is set in a barn on a farm. It’s lovely flooded with light, spotlessly clean with some quirky tables: old singer sewing machines and large cable drums. The staff are usually all young girls who are efficient and polite.

A quaint and homely little place with pleasant staff! The Creamery Can is located at the beginning of the new stretch of dual carriageway coming from Belfast direction and it would be easy to drive on past....don't know whether the owners are unable to get a sign, they could lose business ......we knew where it was and went on past and had to turn around at the next turnoff about a mile further and come back.......the turnoff is Glarryford that we need to look for next time!!

When we arrived it was not busy so we ordered what we wanted and took a seat,the table we sat down at was filthy! and the floor was no better! The place is infested with flies too which was very of putting. When the girl came with my childrens food I had to ask her to clean the table,I could have cleaned it better myself! Finally had to say it would do as it was. We ate our snack and went to leave, as I was leaving I noticed the work space which was atrocious with cake,bread,butter etc and with the flies,well I'm sure you get the picture. My kids wanted an icecream as we were leaving,so we waited a few moments to get served, when we asked for the cones, the ice-cream my son wanted was completed thawed, so my son had to pick another flavour which was still pretty soft! To top our visit off the bill was ridiculous,£5.40 for two cones!! (Not to mention what I had paid for our quick bite before this. The place is overly priced!), all in all we will not be back, this place needs a serious shake up!!

The Creamery Can can be easily missed amongst the roadworks on the main road between Ballymena - Ballymoney Road but it would be your serious loss. The coffees and teas are excellent but the food is delicious. I tried their duck rolls which were served with rocket/tomato salad and home made coarse coleslaw - truly scrumptious. You pass this cafe by at your peril. Their panini and tray bakes/cakes have got to be seen to be believed. The interior of the cafe is warm, comfortable and welcoming. Their hospitality great - i had two great lattes and the duck roll, my colleague tea and duck roll. They also have excellent wifi - fastest that I've encountered across the whole of Northern Ireland.

We have been visiting this coffee stop since it opened and the food is great. Initially the service was quick, friendly and efficient. That has changed enormously! To the point now where we will give it another try but may stop coming, because the last number of visits have NOT been a positive experience. When we were last in the young ladies are incredibly slow and everything is done in slow motion, there is very little chat or personality from them. Sadly the food is still great but the service and servers need an overhaul........and soon. You will lose valuable customers if you don't get your act together! The reason I have given a "poor" rating for value is solely based on the awful service. I do hope there reviews are read and acted upon by the owners of this lovely little eaterie. I want to continue my patronage but will only do so if I see an improvement. These comments are made in the spirit of constructive criticism

We had driven past this a few times and it always looked interesting.

Amazing scones and delicious tray bakes with a few gluten free options. Old tables were empty cable rolls. Those serving were friendly.

Was at this restaurant today. All we wanted was tea and tray bake,20 minutes! They don't seem to be able to get their act together. Their food is fine but the long drawn out service has put me off. I was here 2 years ago when it first opened. The service was painfully slow then and thought it had been teething problems but obviously not!

Outside surrounding not very nice, rough farm buildings. Parking not organised. Toilet is a wooden hut outside. Inside is pretty and nicely decorated but the flies are awful. Creeping over everything. Lovely dishes and teapots. A nice cup of tea , however the bread snack was expensive for all it was. Too many staff who don't seem to know their role. The resident dog chased the car and it was quite frightening as I worried that it might get hurt. Did this with all cars. Won't be in any hurry back.!

One could easily miss this charming little spot, so lookout! it's worth a visit. I would recommend their savory snacks and tasty treats. Sadly I tried their fry....GRILL....OK not great, poor value for money....better up the road.

A lovely place for morning coffee, although they do do lunch as well. Very cute building just in front of the main farm. Don't let the roadworks put you off going. There's a lovely collie dog which greets you and it was almost as if it was showing us the way to the door! Great cakes, lovely décor, friendly staff and nice music. We will definitely return on our next trip to Northern Ireland. The collie dog was also funny, racing your car to the exit through the adjoining field. Great coffee and scones were so fresh, lovely.

What a lovely place to stop for coffee or lunch. Food choice is excellent. Downside - have visited three times in recent weeks and never once has the Shed Wc been cleaned. The sink in particular is filthy!!!!! Come on owners - it is letting the place down - that and your beautiful collie dog who faithfully retrieves balls and sticks - their coat behind the ears is so matted through neglect!!! Take time and treat them to a groom. It's the small things that customers notice and the collie dog is such an attraction. Otherwise faultless.

Went there with my mum for lunch and a little treat. We had salad with traditional wheaten bread which we both agreed was out of this world (and between us we have tasted a fair few wheatens over the years). The tray names and desserts were pretty good too. I recommend the Easter egg pavlova, but you have probably missed your chance for that this year. Small but a lovely place. I have every intention of going back. Soon.

Having passed several time we decided to call in for breakfast this morning. The place was empty. The food was cooked fresh and served to the table. The cup of tea was made with tea leaves which is hard to find nowadays. The food was nice and locally sourced. Would call again on the way past.

I stopped in on an impromptu visit on my way up to the Causeway Coast when visiting with friends. The food was beautiful and the gluten free cake I had is probably the most heavenly thing I've eaten since going gluten free. And there was about 5 or 6 options for me to choose from - a rare opportunity. All the other food and ice cream looked fab too. The staff were incredibly friendly and I had the chance to meet the owner and hear the story of how the Creamery Can came to be. Turned out to be one of the highlights of my day.

We called in at The Creamery Can for a brunch stop. My wife and myself had one of the most flavoursome breakfasts I have ever tasted. My 2 year old daughter was in heaven playing catch with the resident farm dog. Will definitely be calling here again.

Stopped in thinking it was a functioning creamery with its own ice cream, as I love ice cream, and was half right.

This is my second visit here and is an amazing coffee shop! Today was vegetable soup which was full of barley, peas and chunks of chicken just like your mum used to make and that left enough room for the amazing strawberry cream scone.... Words can't describe how delicious they are! I will be back very very soon

My friend suggested we went for afternoon tea here over the Easter holidays. I was not disappointed, the lovely lady set a feast down in front of us. It consisted of 2 types of sandwiches, sausage rolls, raspberry and white chocolate scones (which were amazing), 4 varieties of traybakes and 2 chocolate covered strawberries all for £12.50 each. We really couldn't manage it all. The lady and gentlemen working there were very attentive and friendly. I couldn't eat for the rest of the day! Highly recommend.

We love calling into this delightful coffee shop and if we are lucky we will be greeted by Winnie, a great asset. Everything is home made and this is a wonderful oasis on the journey up to the north coast. We always look forward to our visit to the Craemery Can, it never disappoints.

Firstly - don't let the road works put you off. It's easy to get in and out and plenty of parking.

On arrival we received a lovely warm welcome and a great selection of hot and cold delights. All of the food looked homemade and delicious. After we got to our table the food was delivered and we were not disappointed. Coffee was hot and steamy with a good aroma. The cafe is on the small side but it had a modern feel to what once was a farm outbuilding, but with heating.
